We created this podcast to provide best practice recommendations by contract management thought leaders. We want to help companies on every industry to support organizational design, development and competence. Contract and Commercial Lifecycle Management is not a new term anymore. The main idea is that contracts constitute the core system of commercial record for all enterprise value-creating activity — not just legal activity.

0:00Welcome to another episode of Contract Heroes, the show where our guests, and sometimes us, provide best practice recommendations on all things related to contract management. Hi there everyone, and welcome to the first episode, the first official episode, of Contract Heroes. Marc, what are you waiting for? I, I thought everybody was clapping. I was- was gonna give them a minute to finish. I guess not. I guess we're not there yet. Maybe the audience isn't that big. So, so anyways, everyone, hey, my name is Marc Doucette. I'm the head of sales over here at Koho Software, and, uh, probably about a year ago, Pepe and I realized that there wasn't really any podcasts out there that were talking about the, uh, the life cycle that a document goes through before it gets stored in either a filing cabinet or some type of repository. Uh, so, you know, we put our heads together and, and we were thinking about putting a, a show together where we could bring on guests that were experts in each part of this document's life cycle to provide best practices when it comes to each of these different stages.
1:13Um, so why would you wanna give this podcast a listen? Well, because if you work with contracts on a regular or semi-regular basis, you probably aren't getting the full story of what happens when a document leaves your hands, and that's kinda where we're trying to fill people in on. Hopefully you'll be able to get a better understanding of what other departments are going through, uh, when they're working with these documents. Exactly. And well, Marc, contract and commercial life cycle is not a new term anymore. The, the main idea is that contracts constitute the core system of commercial record for all enterprise value-creating activity, not just legal ac- activity. The result is a new way to conceive and orchestrate commercial best practices, combining advanced contract management and, of course, digital tools to drive enterprise-wide value creation. On each of these episodes, we'll be exploring how different parts of organizations interact with contracts and this process to better understand what the roles are inside the processes.
2:18Our hope is that this will bring teams together closer so they can understand what happens to a document after it leaves their hands. Awesome. Awesome. Thanks, Pepe. And yeah, so e- everyone, we're, we're really excited about this show. We already have the first couple of episodes recorded, so hopefully we'll be pushing those out soon. We just wanted to, to give you a look, uh, under the covers here and, and kinda see what was going on. So we, uh, really hope you're gonna enjoy this and, uh, keep your eyes peeled for that first episode because it's gonna be coming out here soon. You're gonna enjoy it.
